Pros

The opportunity to create positive experiences with Guests and community with other Cast Members makes this a fun place to work. Excellent benefits and 401k for both full-time and part-time Cast Members.

Cons

As with any job, there are hard days. Have a realistic expectation when joining the Company, as we are the ones who create magic, but do not always receive it.

Pros

Having done the Disney College Program, my experience may be a little different than what a normal full-time or part-time cast member's might have been. - Disney offers many benefits, programs and services to help better you professionally and personally. There is a lot of opportunity to grow in various ways during your time here. - For Disney College Program cast members, housing is provided which certainly helps those who have no one to room with or for those coming from overseas. - Disney also loves to throw little extras in for cast members, like backstage parties and opportunities to ride new attractions before anyone else. It's appreciated.

Cons

- Disney College Program pay is very low and forces you to be very frugal with your funds. For some (especially those entering the workforce), this may be a blessing in disguise since there's no better lesson in financial responsibility than to live in such an expensive city. - Despite that, the provided housing costs more in rent monthly than it does to rent an apartment in Orlando. - Disney is unfortunately not immune to the same coworker and managerial politics that can plague other companies. Disney College Program participants seem to get a great deal of hostility from full-time and part-time cast members, with little leadership to stand up for them.
